Scotts Bluff County Veterans Service Officer
John Brehm joins Kevin Mooney on KNEB's News Extra program Thursday
morning for an early look at activities planned in the valley for
Veteran's Day, which is Tuesday, November 11th.

They are on the program to talk about the importance
of renewing the Scottsbluff City Sales Tax on the ballot. The measure
includes Proposition #1, which represents the 1.5% local sales tax. It
provides property tax relief and allows 1/4 of 1% to be used for
economic development. Proposition #2 represents the Economic
Development Plan (LB0849), allowing them to continue providing grants
and loans for community growth.

The
Instrumental Music Program at Western Nebraska Community College will
present "Summer Nights" Saturday, November 15. The sixth annual Fall
Ball, held at the Gering Civic Center, heats things up for a one night
only dinner and show event.

"Summer Nights" features instrumental
music ensembles, under the direction of Dr. Johnson, including student,
faculty, and community talent. The evening begins with a social hour at
6:15 with music provided by Sultry Sounds. The show starts at 7:00
with performances by Monumental Rock Combo, Western Nebraska Winds,
Fire-in-the-Pan Swingers, and the Cougar Athletic Band, all under the
direction of Music Instructor and Band Director Nat Johnson.

Johnson,
who plays clarinet for the 101st Army Band (Colorado National Guard) in
Denver, further mixes things up this year by joining the Monumental
Rock Combo on tenor saxophone.

Along with great music, patrons
will enjoy a dinner meal of chicken kabobs (chicken with peppers,
onions, and mushrooms) over rice pilaf, beet squash medley, strawberry
spinach salad, peach crisp with ice cream, rolls and butter, and coffee
or tea. The meal and the musical event cost only $30.
